that I came across this great product. It really is tremendous technology,” she says.

ThinLine pads are different from other pads because they incorporate a unique, open cell

technology that moves shock, weight and heat laterally along the pad without compressing. The

result is 95% shock absorption and reduced rider movement.

“This encourages your horse to move through his back,” Elaine explains. “We get calls and

emails everyday with stories of how ThinLine saddle pads have improved their horse’s

movement or their ability to sit their horse’s gaits. These riders tell us they have little or no back

pain and that their horses are working better and happier. It’s a two-way street of comfort, ideal

for presenting problems, resolving current challenges and preventing rider and horse back

problems in the future.” Riders now consider a ThinLine pad equal to safety equipment such as

helmets and boots. Studies over the past two decades have demonstrated riders who use

ThinLine daily have healthier backs after decades of riding”.

USET Member Schuyler Riley explains, “Nottingham’s back was in a lot of pain…He jumps

hard and uses his whole body. At his first show in the ThinLine pad, he jumped three days in a

row without having a pole down…two weeks later a bone scan showed his back to be pain free! I

even noticed a difference in my back. I now plan on using ThinLine on all my top horses!”

The trademarked open cell technology also makes ThinLine pads 100% breathable so heat and

moisture are not trapped under the saddle. An anti-microbial agent is also infused into all

ThinLine products. Because ThinLine doesn’t compress or slip, pressure points created by

movement or position changes in the saddle are eliminated. “Many of the challenges associated

with working muscles are nearly eliminated,” Elaine says. “And because the pad returns to its

original shape immediately, it is very durable and can be used on multiple horses each day.”

High Tech Solutions for Riders

If a saddle pad is effective for a horse the rider should also be able to feel a difference. Comfort is two way street. ThinLine is the only product endorsed by surgeons for riders with back problems. See back cover and text in “The Riders Pain Free Back” by Dr. Jim Warson.
